For extra flavor, try adding a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the salmon mixture. If the salmon mixture is too wet, add a little more breadcrumbs to help bind the patties. These burgers can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before cooking. For a spicier kick, add a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the lemon-basil sauce.
